I ran the Wed. night drags at BeaverSprings, but it was ****ing Hot, and humid, plus windy.
It was still 90F+ at 5:45 when I was doing this, humidity was at least 85% .. and to boot, the flags were blowing so hard they were practically straight (of course a head wind). (elevation 642 ft)
Anyway...enough excuses.... i just want to get the "corrected" times to see how i did (how do you correct timeslips?).
'60 - 2.183
1/4 - 14.417
trp spd 96.76
That was with a burnout, 8000rpm launch (which worked well), no lifting off gas when shifting, mirrors in, and rear tire pressure at 24psi.
Next best
'60 - 2.115
1/4 - 14.442
trp spd 94.03 (head wind I guess)
again...That was with a burnout, 8000rpm launch (which worked well), no lifting off gas when shifting, mirrors in, and rear tire pressure at 24psi.
I eventually dropped my tires down to 21psi, but my car was soooo damned hot at that point it didn't help at all....
